Zombie fungus attack! (Ophiocordyceps unilateralis)

(ENG) The ant in the picture was infected by a Entomopathogenic fungus, probably a fungus on the Ophiocordyceps unilateralis complex. When the spores of this fungi get in contact with the ant's body these get attached to the body's surface, microscopic filaments called hyphae grows inside the body, reach the brain, and alter the ant's behavior (for this reason these fungi are called "zombie"). The infected ant would not work anymore, the ant will climb to a leaf, biting the central vein of the leaf to hold on, and die. Then the fungus is ready to reproduce, its fruiting bodies grow from the ant's head and rupture, releasing the spores. This spores infect new ant closing the fungus life cycle.
